When the next collection does not fit your plans, choose a Dropcurb pickup day. Updates keep you informed, and completion photos show when the booked items are gone.
A few simple choices turn a mixed pile into a clear booking. No need to estimate how much of a truck it might fill.
Filled bags and boxes
Count each trash bag or filled household box. Books and media go by the box. Clothes, bedding and shoes go by the filled bag. Toys packed together have a Box of toys choice. Ask us about unusually heavy or oversized bags and boxes first.
Empty cardboard and containers
Empty cardboard is a different choice: choose single empty boxes or tied bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Compacted bales have their own weight-based choices and require loading-dock access. A Storage bin choice covers the empty bin itself; ask us to confirm the contents if they are going too.
Furniture and other larger items
Add the actual larger item alongside your bags and boxes, such as a sofa, chair or mattress. It has its own price and preparation. Keep construction materials and items needing special handling out of ordinary household bags.

Pinellas County does not collect household trash or recycling in Palm Harbor, so the property owner chooses one of the county-listed haulers and that company handles the route, the bins and the billing.
City cost & eligibility
Each licensed hauler sets its own rates for a Palm Harbor address, and the county publishes the hauler list rather than a price, so confirm the monthly charge, the cart sizes and the bulky item terms with the chosen company before signing up.
When & how
The collection days come from the hauler the household hires, because no county route serves the community and the county's own collection service covers only the Lealman district.
Get it ready
Ask the hauler where the carts belong, how the recycling is sorted and what the company's own bulky item rules are, and keep household hazardous waste and rechargeable batteries out of every container.
Bulky items through the hauler or a self-haul load
Special rules apply
There is no county bulky item pickup in Palm Harbor, so a bulky item goes out through the household's own hauler or rides a self-haul load to the county disposal complex.
City cost & eligibility
The household's hauler sets its own bulky item terms and price, and the county publishes no bulky entitlement for this community, so confirm the arrangement with the hauler first, and check the complex pricing before self-hauling instead.
When & how
Ask the hauler for its bulky item day and notice period, or drive the load to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex during scalehouse hours, which run Monday to Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Get it ready
Keep hazardous products, liquids, explosives and fuel out of the pile, because the complex rejects those loads and household chemicals belong on the free county chemical route. Personal protective equipment is required on site at the complex, including closed toe shoes.
A mattress has no county pickup route in Palm Harbor, so it goes through the household's hauler or in a self-haul load with the vehicle or weight fee that applies.
City cost & eligibility
No county item price exists for a mattress here, because the complex prices a load by vehicle or by weight and the hauler prices its own bulky service, so confirm the cost with the hauler or check the scalehouse rules before loading.
When & how
Either book the mattress with the household's hauler, or take it to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex during scalehouse hours.
Get it ready
Keep the mattress dry and out of the recycling load, and keep it away from any rechargeable batteries or chemicals being carried in the same vehicle, because those belong on the household chemical route.
An appliance leaves a Palm Harbor home through the household's hauler or as part of a self-haul load at the county disposal complex, since no county appliance pickup serves the community.
City cost & eligibility
The hauler quotes its own appliance pickup, and the county charges a self-haul load by vehicle or by weight rather than by appliance, so confirm the route and the amount before the unit comes out of the house.
When & how
Book the appliance with the household's hauler, or take it to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex during scalehouse hours from Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Saturday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Get it ready
Empty the unit first and keep it upright for the trip, and keep any loose battery, fuel or chemical away from the load, because gasoline, fuel oil, liquid waste and hazardous waste are rejected at the complex and belong on the free county chemical route.
Electronics without rechargeable batteries can go in the garbage bin, to a local recycler or to the disposal complex for a fee, and the county chemical centres no longer accept them.
City cost & eligibility
Three published routes carry different terms. Garbage disposal and the recycler search tool cost nothing to use, a self-haul load at the complex is charged by vehicle or weight, and the household chemical programme is free but takes chemicals only. Confirm the route and any fee before the device leaves the property.
When & how
Use the county Where Does It Go search tool to find a local electronics recycler, put a device without a rechargeable battery in the garbage bin, or drive it to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex during scalehouse hours and be charged as part of the load.
Get it ready
Remove a rechargeable battery before anything is thrown away or recycled, and never put the battery or a device that still holds one in the garbage or recycling bin. If the battery cannot come out, take the whole item to a battery drop-off, because rechargeable batteries are accepted as a household chemical.
A project load has no curbside route in Palm Harbor and goes to the county disposal complex by weight or by vehicle, with extra charges for material that needs preparation.
City cost & eligibility
The complex charges a self-haul load by vehicle type or by weight, adds a special handling fee of $110 a load or a contractor surcharge of $100 a load for material that needs additional processing, and no county rate exists for a curbside project pickup here, so confirm the load with the scalehouse on 727-464-7500.
When & how
Take the load to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex during scalehouse hours, Monday to Friday 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. or Saturday 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and book an appointment first if the load is soil, treated lumber, asbestos, sludge or similar special handling material.
Get it ready
Keep vehicles, explosives, liquids, gasoline, fuel oil and hazardous waste out of the load, because those are prohibited at the scalehouse. Separate treated lumber and soil, because those need an appointment, and keep any lead or mercury containing fixture on the household chemical route instead.
Because the county does not collect in Palm Harbor, the property owner picks a company from the county's licensed hauler list and sets up individual service. Collection days, cart placement, extra pickups, missed pickups and billing all come from that company rather than from a county programme.
Self-haul loads go to the complex during scalehouse hours
The Solid Waste Disposal Complex at 3095 114th Ave N in St. Petersburg takes self-haul loads Monday to Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., closed Sundays. Prices follow the vehicle, and personal protective equipment is required on site, including closed toe shoes.
A rechargeable battery or a device still holding one is a fire risk in the garbage truck and at the recycling facility. Take the battery out and bring it to a battery drop-off, or bring the whole item if the battery cannot be removed, since rechargeable batteries are accepted as a household chemical at the county chemical centres.
Use a permitted, accessible outdoor spot. Arrange the move out of your home, keep shared access clear and follow your confirmation’s readiness instructions. Check with your building about access or staging limits before booking.
Arrange the bulky pickup with the household's hauler
A Palm Harbor household that already has curbside service and wants a couch, mattress, appliance or other large item taken away from the curb.
Cost & conditions
Each licensed hauler sets its own bulky item terms and prices and the county publishes no rate for this community, so confirm the item list and the charge with the company the household hired.
Arrange it
Call the hauler on the county's licensed list, describe the item, and follow that company's own notice period and set-out instructions.
The county publishes no bulky entitlement here, so the terms, the accepted items and the price are the hauler's, and a company may limit bulky service to its own customers.

Cost & conditions

Arrange it
Open the county Where Does It Go search tool, choose the household option, search the item, and call the listed recycler to confirm the accepted device.

Before you book
A few things worth knowing.
Bulk junk removal, from choosing your item to pickup day in Palm Harbor.
How much does bulk junk removal cost in Palm Harbor?+
A trash bag is $59 as the first item and $10 additional. A filled household box is $59 as the first item. Add your actual items and quantities to see the combined price before booking. Loading, transportation and disposal are included; any applicable sales tax is shown before payment.
Can you pick up bags of junk today?+
Book by 2pm in the pickup address’s local time for same-day pickup. Available dates appear at checkout. Have the booked bags and boxes outside and accessible according to your confirmation. You receive pickup updates and completion photos; the booking is for a day rather than an exact arrival time.
Do I count every object inside a bag or box?+
No. Count the filled bags or boxes using the matching choice. Books and media go in Filled household box; clothes, bedding and shoes go in Bag of clothes & bedding; packed toys have a Box of toys choice. Empty cardboard is separate, with individual empty boxes and bundles of 10 flattened boxes. Heavy, oversized or unusual contents need a photo review before booking.
Can you pick up a small loose pile of household junk?+
Yes. Estimate how many trash bags the small household pile would fill, and bag or box as much as possible. Select furniture and other larger items separately. There is no extra charge just because the pile is loose. Send a photo first if the count or contents are unclear. A household Dumpster Bag choice does not accept construction debris.
Can I book bags, boxes and furniture together?+
Yes. Select the bags and boxes, then add each larger item using its own catalog choice. The booking shows one combined price for the selected items. Move everything to an accessible outdoor spot before pickup; indoor carrying and sorting are not included. Keep anything you want to retain apart from the booked items and identify what goes in your photos and notes.
Who picks up the trash at a Palm Harbor address?+
A private company the household hires. The county lists Palm Harbor as served by various companies, gives the licensed haulers for unincorporated areas, and states that property owners choose the hauler and set up individual service. A missed pickup, a cart problem, an extra pickup or a billing question goes to that company.Official guidance
Does the county collect household trash here?+
No. Pinellas County Solid Waste provides trash and recycling collection only in the Lealman district, and its service request form is for that community. Everyone else contracts with a private company.Official guidance
How do bulky items leave a Palm Harbor home?+
Two ways. The household's hauler handles bulky pickups on its own terms, which the county does not publish, or the load goes to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex at 3095 114th Ave N in St. Petersburg, where a car, a pickup truck or a van pays a flat fee per load.Official guidance
What counts as a bulky item with no county programme?+
Anything the household bin will not hold, such as furniture, a mattress, an appliance or exercise equipment. Because the county runs no bulky route here, the item is quoted by the hauler or accepted at the complex as part of a self-haul load under the published vehicle or weight fee.Official guidance
Can exercise equipment go out with bulky waste?+
Exercise equipment is not named in any county rule because the county does not run the bulky route here. Ask the household's hauler about the machine, or take it to the disposal complex as part of a self-haul load where the fee follows the vehicle or the weight.Official guidance
Who takes a mattress from a Palm Harbor address?+
There is no county mattress programme here. The household's licensed hauler can quote a bulky pickup on its own terms, or the mattress can go to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex inside a self-haul load, where a car, pickup truck or van pays a flat fee per load and a larger vehicle or trailer pays by weight.Official guidance
How do appliances leave the house?+
Through the household's hauler or in a self-haul load to the county disposal complex. The complex takes the unit as part of a load charged by vehicle type or by weight, and it rejects gasoline, fuel oil, liquid waste and hazardous waste, so those materials stay on the household chemical route.Official guidance
Is there a county appliance pickup?+
No. The county provides no curbside collection in Palm Harbor, so there is no county appliance pickup. Curbside appliances and bulky items are arranged with the household's licensed hauler, or the unit is self-hauled to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex.Official guidance
Where do televisions and electronics go in Palm Harbor?+
Electronics without rechargeable batteries can go in the garbage bin, to a local recycler listed in the county search tool, or to the Solid Waste Disposal Complex as part of a load charged by vehicle or weight. A device with a rechargeable battery needs the battery removed first, or the whole item taken to a battery drop-off.Official guidance
Does the household chemical centre take electronics?+
No. The county states that electronics are no longer recycled at the hazardous waste centre or at the northern chemical site, and those two locations accept household chemicals only. Rechargeable batteries are still accepted there because they count as a household chemical.Official guidance
Where does construction debris go from Palm Harbor?+
To the Solid Waste Disposal Complex at 3095 114th Ave N in St. Petersburg. The load is charged by vehicle type, such as a flat fee for a pickup truck or van, or by weight for a larger vehicle or a trailer, and a contractor surcharge applies when the material needs additional processing.Official guidance
Which loads need an appointment at the complex?+
Soil, treated lumber, asbestos, sludge, deceased animals, boats and industrial process waste need an appointment with the county on 727-464-7500, and the special handling service is charged on top of the disposal fee. Vehicles, explosives, liquids, gasoline, fuel oil and hazardous waste are not accepted at all.Official guidance
Who collects trash in Palm Harbor?+
A private company that the household chooses from the county's list of licensed haulers for unincorporated areas. The county's directory shows Palm Harbor as served by various companies, and its own collection service covers only the Lealman district, so start service with a hauler and keep that company's number for missed pickups and billing.Official guidance
Is Palm Harbor inside a city or town?+
Palm Harbor sits in unincorporated Pinellas County, so there is no city collection department to call. The county distinguishes addresses inside a city or town, where that city manages the service, from unincorporated addresses, where the property owner chooses a hauling company, and it publishes an address lookup tool for the boundary question.Official guidance
Where do paint and chemicals go?+
To a county household chemical collection site, free for Pinellas County households. The main centre at 2855 109th Ave N in St. Petersburg opens Tuesday to Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on the first and third Saturday of each month, the northern site opens on posted Saturdays, and limits apply per vehicle per day.Official guidance
Where can recycling be dropped off?+
At one of more than 30 mixed recycling centres across the county, free to residents and managed by the county and its municipalities. They take flattened cardboard, clean paper, junk mail, paperboard, cartons, empty plastic bottles and jugs without caps, empty metal cans without lids, and empty glass bottles and jars without lids.Official guidance
Where is the free mulch in Palm Harbor?+
John Chesnut Sr. County Park at 2200 East Lake Road is one of 15 county mulch pickup locations, and the mulch is free to residents. Bring a pitchfork, and cover a pickup truck or trailer load with a tarp or vehicle cover, which the county notes is required by law.Official guidance
How are tires handled here?+
Tires come into the disposal complex in a self-haul load. Tires up to 36 inches are accepted whole, larger tires must be cut into quarters, up to four tires may stay on the rim while the rest need the rim removed, and a load with 26 or more tires needs state waste tire collector registration. The scalehouse confirms the current tire charge.Official guidance
